Summary: This research examines the impact of digital finance and renewable energy investment on carbon neutrality using panel data of Chinese companies in 30 provinces from 2005 to 2020. The study finds that inclusive digital financing can directly reduce carbon intensity and also influence it through improving industrial structure, resource efficiency, and promoting green technologies. The marginal impact of digital financing is smaller for large enterprises (larger for small firms), reflecting the challenges small businesses face in accessing finance. Digital finance opens new funding avenues for these businesses to achieve sustainability. The inclusiveness of digital financing, compared to traditional banking, can enhance private businesses' green innovation.

Summary: The development of renewable energy is essential for achieving carbon neutrality and mitigating climate change. Digitalization is seen as a virtual method for energy transition, but empirical evidence on its role in promoting variable renewable energy integration is lacking. In this study, the contribution of digital industries to the electricity sector in 33 countries was measured, and the moderating effect of digitalization on the relationship between renewable energy installation and generation was examined. The results show that digitalization has a positive moderating effect on renewable energy integration, with the effect being asymmetric and more pronounced when digital input exceeds 4.2659%. The moderating effect of digitalization is present in developed countries but not statistically significant in developing countries. These findings provide valuable insights for policymakers and stakeholders in promoting renewable energy development and carbon neutrality.

Summary: Digital infrastructure construction and low-carbon development are two important drivers for sustainable growth. This study comprehensively analyzes the relationship between the two, using China as an example to empirically examine the role of digital infrastructure construction in low-carbon development. The results show that digital infrastructure construction actively encourages low-carbon growth and has a positive spatial spillover impact. The study also highlights the non-linear trend of increasing marginal effect and the need for industrial upgrading in low-carbon development.

Summary: In the past thirty years, there has been a significant growth in the use of natural gas as an energy source for Mexican electricity production, with its share increasing from 7% in 1990 to 62.3% in 2020. However, this co-dependence between electricity and natural gas systems raises concerns about the decarbonization objective of the electricity sector. Through a decomposition analysis of electricity greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in Mexico from 1990 to 2015, it is found that the activity effect has been the main driver of GHG emissions growth, while the structure and energy intensity effects have contributed to limiting that growth. The small contribution of the carbon coefficient effect in mitigating GHG emissions raises concerns about the role of natural gas, as it could hinder the development of renewable energy and lead to carbon lock-in and stranded assets in the long run. Given these concerns, it is concluded that an energy policy aiming towards a low-carbon energy system should consider a composition of natural gas + renewable energies + energy efficiency.

Summary: To achieve carbon neutrality targets, Asian countries have formulated renewable energy development strategies, among which digitalization has provided sufficient development impetus for the energy transition. The impact of the digital economy on renewable energy generation (REG) in Asian countries from 2003 to 2019 and the moderating effect of financial development, political stability, and the rule of law were explored using the IV-GMM technique. The results indicate that the digital economy has a positive effect on REG.

Summary: The digital industry has had a significant impact on the Chinese economy, but it has also raised concerns about environmental effects. This study analyzes the production structure factors of the digital industry and their effects on China's carbon emissions. The results show that while the direct structural effects of the industry reduce carbon emissions, the indirect effects contribute to an increase. High-energy-consuming sectors are most affected by these structural changes. The study suggests implementing policies to address these issues.

Summary: The forces of digital transformation have brought significant benefits to industries such as retail and manufacturing, but the resource and energy sectors have been slow to adopt new technologies. This systematic literature review examines the application of digital technologies in the oil and gas, mining, and energy domains, and identifies trends and patterns in their usage. The findings reveal that the energy sector, excluding oil & gas, has been the focus of most research, and reducing operational expenses is a common objective of digital transformation. The paper highlights six research areas for future scholars, practitioners, and policymakers to accelerate digital transformation in the resource and energy sectors.

Summary: As digitalization continues to transform the world, it has diverse effects on energy demand and carbon emissions. This study focuses on the sustainability challenges brought about by digital technology, specifically in China's 5G technology applications. The research estimates the CO2 emissions from base stations and identifies four key factors contributing to changes in emissions: terminal demand, data traffic, energy intensity, and emission factor. Data traffic is found to be the dominant factor driving CO2 emissions, while technological advances in energy intensity significantly reduce emissions. The study also projects power consumption and CO2 emissions with the implementation of 5G technology in 2025, showing that policies aimed at reducing energy intensity can help mitigate power demand and carbon emissions. The analysis suggests that promoting technology upgrades, energy management, and the adoption of advanced digital technology are effective measures towards achieving sustainable digitalization.

Summary: This study examines the impact of financial development and digital trade on the ecological footprint of G-7 countries. The findings suggest a negative association between digital trade and renewable energy consumption with the ecological footprint, while financial development shows a significantly positive relationship. Therefore, digital trade and increased renewable energy consumption play a positive role in ensuring ecological sustainability, while financial development may lead to environmental degradation.

Summary: The future power plants require digital twin (DT) architecture for achieving high reliability, availability, and maintainability at lower cost. However, the available research on DT for power plants is limited and lacks detailed description. This study proposes a comprehensive and robust DT architecture for power plants, and determines the requirements, rules, and components of the DT. Recommendations are made for the future development of power plant DT, including the development of data-driven algorithms for predicting system's dynamic behavior and the incorporation of low-order physics-based models to enhance the results from the data-driven process.
